Oh yeah, changing to favourites doesn't save once you exit. Stoopid.

Have you tried any backwards compatible games on it

I played a good bit of Dirt Showdown on mine lastnight, was flawless streaming but gave me my first complaint about the tablet - the right trigger / button layout is a bit awkard for games where you'll be holding RT down for long periods - was nipping my finger after a while, it's as if the triggers aren't angled enough or something to sit comfortably while using the buttons (or my hands are too small)

Might see if I can change the triggers around

Do the Xtra-Vision Xpress Vending machines carry Xbox One games?

Happened me a couple times over the weekend but only because I was far from my Xbox with a 20foot HDMI cable coming from Xbox upstairs to TV downstairs.

I think my remote just took a knock and thats what its doing it, its def not the same reason as yours haha.

Rocket league getting cross platform support so xb1 players will be able to play against ps4 players now too, hopefully this leads to further games using it. CoD, Battlefield etc, playing against PS4 players would be fun.

Awh stop. I was sick of moving my xbox from room to room depending on what room I felt in the mood for so now just drag a cable from mancave to sittingroom or bedroom :P

Delighted my turtle beach work in different rooms too, I was just using basic headset with tv audio.

My headset reaches all around my house but just cuts out when it gets to the fridge

Hi lads just wondering has anyone else had problems with party chat and gaming at the same time, was in a party last night and when a thrid person would join the second would leave and when he came back the other would leave without touching anything, I thought party's could host 6/8 people, couldn't start a game of Madden while in party chat either

When is Microsoft ever going to give us quality games that were on the Xbox 360 onto Xbox one through Backwards Compatibility. All the games they chose so far are crap and they said the games (inc. ones I want) are coming SOON. I have waited 3 months now...

It's not actually Microsoft. It's the publishers that are the issue. They have to give Xbox permission to add their games to the backward compatible list.

This requires no work on behalf of the studios other than giving their consent.

It does, really. Microsoft could flip the switch and publish all the games but could get into trouble with the content owners because they haven't given permission for their content to be distributed Visa this method.

If there's a game that you really want, then nag the content owners... (and Microsoft) ... So they can work together to get it done.

If you're hurting to play them that badly wouldn't you buy a second hand 360? There's more quality games to play on Xbox one than there is hours in the day.

Plug the 360s HDMI lead into the back of the xbox one in the "from sat/cable" port - you don't need to swap hdmi leads around then as the xbox one will display whats on the 360, which you then use as normal.
